      I have a feeling it would be a very costly decision but I wouldn't be mad if he did it. It shouldn't effect the outcome of the fight though. The fight would go on as scheduled. Too much money at stake to cancel it.

        He absolutely should do it! **** it!!!! Pay the fine, it is the biggest fight of his life, he may as well be completely comforatable!!! He has nothing to lose, and if he wins the payoff is worth the risk of taking a couple million dollar hit, even if it is that high.

          What happens when Canelo does the same thing and comes in at 154 at the weight in instead of the agreed 152....

          Does floyd throw a tantrum and not fight..... or does he take some canelo cash and fight him anyway....

          What you think about htis scenario..

          If im canelo i come in at 154 and see what Floyd does... highly doubt they would pull the plug on the biggest fight of the year over 2 pounds....

          Please discuss
          He could do that and probably get away with it. I just don't think Canelo would even consider doing that. He is very professional and a man of his word. I think he will do his best to make the 152 pound limit he agreed to.

            It really doesn't matter. 2 pounds wont change the outcome of the fight. It only changes the built in excuses that people are already coming up with. I thought we were mad at Floyd for being a hypocrite. Either way Canelo wont be drained over 2 pounds. May the best man win.

              It's possible there is something in the contract about Canelo coming in over 152 pounds. As long as Canelo is at or under 154 I think Floyd will still fight him if he gets some extra cash. I can't see Floyd giving up all those millions and all the hard work he put in training for the fight.

                  That would be ******...Canelo would lose his belts at the scale and maybe a good portion of purse...but the fight would go on.

                    How can you lose the 154 belt if he weights 154... Im not saying canelo comes in at 160,,, Just saying that he should come in at the 154 limit and see what floyd does....

                    Honestly Canelo doesnt need a belt, He is the money man in the division....
                    Im sure the sanctioning bodies would have a vacant belt and he would fight for it...

                      So professional that he broke a catchweight agreement of 151lbs and came in at 153lbs against Matthew Hatton. I keep saying it, but people keep on as if Mayweather is the only one of the two with form for this. They've both done it so there's no karma involved.

                      That aside, if Alvarez does come in at 154lbs, as stated, all excuses for a loss are gone and Mayweather should get full credit for a win if gets one.
